Teenagers though they may be, Tyler Mabry and Harlow Phillips exude wisdom beyond their years. The Atlanta duo, who make up the emo-folk powerhouse hey, nothing, have championed the dubiousness of TikTok virality in the last couple of years without sacrificing lyricism that lays all cards on the table through their raw, memorable sound — an amalgamation of Modern Baseball, Modern Lovers, and Anthony Green, played at the folk-punk pace of Violent Femmes.
Stereogum calls them emo-folk and "tweemo Big Thief".
"Maine" reminds me of Noah Kahan.
"i haunt yr dreams" has that Violent Femmes folk-punk pace mentioned.
I like the guitar playing in this song. It's about addiction which is timely as the book I'm reading deals with addiction, too.
